Opportunities to Express LGBT Concerns in Research
 |
People across the country are beginning to work on understanding the experiences of the LGBT community, as well as Allies. As we become aware of these studies, often national in scope, we will post them here for you to take part in if you wish. Fall 2009
University of Virginia's LGB Resilience Study The University of Virginia, Department of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Sciences seeks lesbian, gay, bisexual (LGB) adults ages 18 or older to participate in a confidential, on-line survey about stress and coping related to sexual orientation. The survey will take 20 - 30 minutes to complete. To access the study go to: http//:lgbtresilience2009.questionpro.com. For more information about the study, please contact Dr. Michelle Vaughan at mdv5n@virginia.edu or (434) 243 0542.
Summer 2009
National LGBT College Climate Survey (please complete by June 30, 2009) Do you consider your campus to be gay-friendly? Does your campus have work to be done on transgender issues? What does it mean to be a lesbian, gay, bisexual or a transgender (LGBT) student, staff, or faculty member on your campus? No matter your experience Campus Pride wants to hear from LGBT students, faculty, staff and administrators. Participation is confidential and data specific to higher education institutions will not be identified in the final analysis. National trends and experiences from the study will be shared biannually as a way to better understand LGBT needs and render informed decisions on policies, programs and practices impacting LGBT campus life. To be released in 2010, the national report will be compiled in a research summary of findings from Campus Pride titled the "State of Higher Education for LGBT People." TELL US ABOUT IT, go to www.campuspride.org/research. Please do so before June 30, 2009.
